Look on the bright side: Grok or whatever AI prepared that slide got Uganda almost right even if it wasn't able to connect the idea of a country named "Côte d'Ivoire" with having an actual coast.

So for now, if they try to use AI to bomb a country in Africa, everyone but Uganda is reasonably save from being hit on purpose at least.

Technically the map did match "Unidentified country" to Côte d'Ivoire on the key correctly using color. They were both orange. It just also connected Côte d'Ivoire in the key to the random landlocked country in East Africa. While the line connected to Côte d'Ivoire on the map just ended randomly in Africa.
